UPDATE NUMBER 1!

(This post was planned for Sunday 29-12-13.....As is usual with me...I didn't get round to it! ....Another bad habit I need to break!)

So, what have I been up to this week?
Not a lot really....it's been SO WET here in the UK! It hasn't stopped raining in what feels like DAYS!!

Hubby (a Coach Driver) has taken a group over the Holland for a Badminton Tournament for the next few days, so the house is quieter and the smalls are occupying themselves with their Christmas games and purchases. The eldest is holed up in her room "allegedly" doing school work but more probably watching films on her laptop!

I have ticked off a few jobs on by "to do" list.

# I've just about finished my planner for the next year.....pictures when I can get them....at the moment it's so DARK in the house they are coming out all grainy....plus I'm not entirely sure where I put the cable to transfer them to the computer!
# I've counted all the boxes and bags I need to empty on my quest to find the house.......there is A LOT!!!!
So many infact that they are probably a post all on their own! We're talking into 3 figures here, combined!
It's a number that shook even ME....and I live with them all day every day!
# I've thought...I mean *REALLY* thought about my goals for 2014.

So all in all I think I'm doing OK.
As long as I keep it up!

Grinding Halt

UPDATED 04-01-12 With Photos.

Well, it's a bit later than the last post, and once again I've come to a grinding halt!

.....In the same place I always do! :-(

See, when I'm clearing the living room I start at the door and work anticlockwise. By the time I get to my chair in the corner I've had enough. I've run out of steam, usually run out of time, and definately run out of space to put "Stuff"....and I've done it again.

See - up to the chair it's looking SO much better!

When I started this last weekend I had the brilliant idea that if I went the OTHER way round the room I might actually get it cleared....only that means starting with my desk......

.......and it didn't work!

....But then you turn round and are faced with this mountain :-(

Oh well. Must go and re-heap the piles in the kitchen so we can make some lunch. Sigh!

...The remnants of the "tidying" Sigh!
